The replication file contained here includes the Stata .do file necessary to replicate the results in the main paper as well as the robustness checks of the dependent variable that are contained in the online appendix. These robustness checks re-code the dependent variable to require 2 years and 3 years, respectively, of conflict inactivity in order for a conflict to terminate.

In order to run the .do file, please replace the local directory in line 5 of the .do file with the location of the data sets. The main data set on which the analysis in the paper is conducted is labeled �greig-replication data.dta�. The data file for the 2-year conflict termination analysis is labeled �greig-replication data-2yr term.dta�. Finally, the data file for the 3-year conflict termination analysis is labeled �greig replication data-3yr term.dta�. All data files should be placed in the same directory when running the .do file. The analysis for the paper was originally conducted using Stata 15.1.

All variables contained in each dataset have labels that match those that are contained within the main paper. Dyad, state, conflict, and side identifiers are all original identifiers from UCDP.

If you have any questions using the data, please do not hesitate to contact me.
